president obama's first debate performance put pressure on president obama to debate -- to perform at a certain level on tuesday. if president obama's performance level doesn't improve in the second debate, i think his poll numbers are going to take an absolute dive. we've already seen that they've gone down as a result of the disastrous first debate. a disastrous second debate certainly would be a fatal blow. i think what joe biden's debate performance did was stop the bleeding and give obama, give president obama the chance to live to fight another day. >> you said stop the bleeding. what do you mean by that? there are different views about how he performed. >> there's a lot of different views, but we know he didn't abysmally lose the way president obama lost. some saw vice president biden win. some folks saw paul ryan win. i saw it as a draw. but i know the next day or after the debate we weren't all saying this was a horrific performance. that this had been an absolute loss by joe biden. by that i mean he stopped the bleeding. >> yeah. >> he at least did not go in and lose terribl

here you have a debate. the one time when romney can address 67 million americans unfiltered by the media and with no ads to clutter it up. utterly demolishes the strong man of romney -- i mean of obama with argument and facts. he won on an avalanche of fact which totally took apart the narrative. he showed he could not raise the taxes on the middle class. he showed he demonstrated again and again that the share of taxes will remain the same under him. you take away this man you take away the idea of capitalists who cares for no one and there's nothing left in the obama campaign. he can't run on the past. he can't run on the future because he doesn't have a program. he if he can't kill romney he has nothing. >>> the candidates will face each other on a second debate. >> it is time to brew on this. we have your discussions so far as vice presidential joe died ben and paul ryan go head -- vice presidential joe biden and paul ryan debate. >> what do you see as the role of the vp over the next four years? >> guy

so mitt romney may have won the debate, but president obama won the post debate. at least it seemed that way for these last few days. then today back down to earth for democrats. we started getting in the first solid round of polling that reflected the results of the debate. and however, well the obama campaign did in managing the post debate spin and the post debate campaigning, the poll numbers clearly have now shifted in mitt romney's favor. in the new national poll out from the pew research center, governor romney is now tied with the president. romney trailed in this survey by 9 points before the debate. so that's a big shift toward mitt romney and away from barack obama in that poll. like wise in the new gallup poll, mr. romney polled even with the president after the debate erasing a 5-point advantage for the president. we have new polls from the swing states and near swing states. polls that include reaction to the first debate. in wisconsin today the president leads by just two points. that's according to a relatively left-leaning poll. that particular po

the presidential candidates met for their second debate this week with a more spirited president obama trading jabs with republican rival mitt romn from immigration to taxes. national polls show the race still very much a toss-up, and swing state surveys continue to tighten. we welcome in our panel this week. so kim, i talked to a lot of democrats this week who were elated by the president's performance. they say that the king is back. he's really rocking now. [laughter] momentum the big mo's with him. what do you think about that? are they right? >> well, i mean, the president certainly made his base thrilled with his performance at the debate. that was one of the things he needed to do. look, there's too many questions coming at the president's campaign. he needed to settle and calm those fears. yes, he succeeded at. what he did not arguably do at the debate is in any stem the damage that mitt romney inflicted in the first debate, which was to expose that he's not really running publicly with a second term agenda. and that's what independents and a lot of undecided voters are looking

if you're governor rom any, he did very well in the debates and i think president obama is a good debater, not a great debater, to be frank about it. but the expectations game and the reality of what he has to accomplish is he has to go out there and change minds. and he has to do it when the fact is, when this is republicans ignored. they know him. they don't like his policies. >> go ahead, joe. >> i think that chris makes a great point. the 1980, ronald reagan really changed the course of the debate and helped himself by saying to americans, think back, are you better off today than you were four years ago, is it easier to get a job, are there fewer of you that are unemployed and by getting the american folks to concentrate on that as opposed to how much they like president carter really helped. >> that's a variation of the question that the romney campaign has been asking for several months and the results that they're getting based on the polling is not the answer that the romney campaign wants. >> well style matters in the debate. think about ronald reagan. jimmy carter had a lot of
